This is ridiculous...
+++++++++++++++++++
Train passengers in all air-conditioned classes and non-AC first class will have to pay a service tax. This is according to the proposal of Budget 2012-13. This is over and above the hikes proposed in the Rail Budget.
The income from the service tax will not accrue to the Railways.

Dear Members,
Please see this calculation to clarify reg hike.Taking a below Example.
#BCT-NDLS RAJHADHANI 3A TICKET FARE BEFORE BUDGET Rs.1495
#PROPOSED FARE HIKE FOR 3A 10 p/km.
#KMS BETWEEN BCT-NDLS --
...
more...
1384
#Fare Increased by Rail budget -- 1384/10 = Rs.138.4
#NOW ROUND IT NEAREST 5 RUPEE MARK =Rs.140
#TOTAL FARE AFTER RAIL BUDGET = Rs.1635
#SERVICE TAX APPLICABLE AFTER UNION BUDGET = 12%
#NOW 1635/12 % = 196.2
#FARE INCREASE AFTER UNION BUDGET = Rs.196.2 ~ Rs.197
#TOTAL AFTER POST BUDGET = Rs.1832
#FARE INCREASED IN END = Rs.337
# % INCREASE IN FARE POST BUDGET = 337/1495 = 0.225 ~ 23%
So Its not as 45% increase as said...
